Hi Tina

I do like the look of a lace weave structure woven in natural coloured cotton. V nice!

I'm looking forward to seeing your first towel off the loom, and all finished. Thanks for posting.

It's not hemmed, but it is washed and ironed.  I should get several more towels off this warp, but now I have to tie on again.

I love these towels! How was the shrinkage on these? Again, the lace is lovely.

Great towel. Huck Lace is one of my favorite weaves.

Cathie - I just updated the project for the final size after washing.  15% in width and 10% in length.  That's for takeup and shrinkage.

Lauries - Huck lace is my favorite for towels too, especially with this 10/2 organic cotton.  I think it makes it look extra special.

What a lovely, classy towel!  I love huck, and to use the different natural cottons is a great design.  Beautiful job!

They are just gorgeous.  I was going to ask what yarns you used, but I think you already answered it - huck lace.  Nice color choices.

Notes

I'm trying to have better records, so this time I actually cut the first towel off the loom and will wet finish it to make sure the finished size is what I want.  Then I can make any adjustments to the woven length for the rest of the towels on this warp.  And I'm adding the project to Weavolution so I can refer back to it.
